POPSUK White Supremacist Guilty of Bomb Plot He was remanded in custody for sentencing on September 8 and was warned by the judge he faced a lengthy prison sentence. Earlier this month, a senior British counter-terrorism officer told a Muslim security group that police feared a rise in attacks by far-right groups. "We treat right wing extremism as seriously as any other form of violent extremism and will continue to investigate such activity with the same determination," John McDowall, head of London's Counter Terrorism Command, said.

POPSLudicrous Diversion (7/7 London Bombing Documentary) The British authorities have, within my living memory, a history of fabricating evidence and falsely convicting people of bombings. See the Birmingham Six , the Guildford Four/Maguire Seven , Judith Ward , Danny McNamee . They also executed Jean Charles de Menezes on the street with a bullet to the head. Their record in regards to terrorism is not the shiniest.

POPSFred Phelps is a registered Democrat. He campaigned for Clinton and Gore. Parallels: The lefties in general criticize the invasion of Iraq, supported Hussein's right to continued dictatorship, sent protesters (and elected officials) to Baghdad decrying the U.S. invasion, declare that the U.S. deserved September 11th and that it's Tony Blairs fault that London's mass transits were bombed, and continuously praise Castro for his excellent management of Cuba (great health-care and schools, natch). And when push came right down to shove in the 2004 election, Bill Clinton advised John Kerry to drop support for gay marriage (you know, Bill Clinton, the "first black President" who signed the Defense of Marriage Act and who utterly caved in on the gays in the military issue; his wife, apparently, suffers from the same lack of conviction).

POPSLudicrous Diversion: 7/7 London Bombings Documentary In the most video-surveillance-saturated country on the planet, why have we still not seen any videos of the bombers in action? Nothing? Isn't it strange that London officials were running terrorism drills depicting fictional bombings on the underground at the precise time & place actual bombings occurred ? The British police have a long, well documented history of forcing confessions and tampering with evidence when it comes to bombing convictions. The Birmingham 6. The Guildford 4. The McGuire 7.

POPSAnalysis of 7/7 Tube Bombings in London includes probable motive, means, and opportunity and scenario of how it was done. "Drills" involving the same exact locations were going on that very day (just like with 9/11), but then it all went "live".

POPSGreat Terror Plot Building in UK (to Coerce Legislation) Do you recognize this pattern? Timing is everything, isn't it? How convenient for legislative purposes to motive the "necessity" of draconian laws, which Parliament just rejected, and now must be punished for to change their minds. The stunning speech came after the Government failed to extend the powers of special terrorism laws. This is right out of the BF Skinner psychological model of stimulus-response training, a form of training any animal to even torture indoctrination, using threats or rewards. The US might have something like this announced too before the Nov elections, as usual, since the Economy has trumped the usual "terrorism" and "national insecurity" issue that worked so well for Bush. (Bin Laden always makes a pre-Halloween video tape which SITE conveniently finds and the MSM parrots for headlines on Drudge). Fear is a powerful weapon to obtain "consent" to reduce liberties.

POPSThe Shadow of Ryazan: Putin’s Government
In explaining his support for the American-led antiterrorist coalition after Sept. 11, 2001, Putin said that Russia had also been a victim of terrorism. This experience, however, looks rather different if the bombings in September, 1999 were carried out by the Russian government as part of an effort to preserve the power and wealth of a criminal oligarchy. The strongest indication that elements of the Russian government were responsible for the bombings, however, was the history of the supposed training exercise in Ryazan. In that incident, the FSB was forced to admit that they had put a bomb in the basement of a civilian apartment building because they were caught in the act. The incident began on the night of September 22, six days after the bombing of Volgodonsk, when police answering a call reporting suspicious activity discovered a bomb in the basement of a building. Experts arriving at the scene found that the bomb tested positive for hexogen. Read full article

POPSThe London Bombings - Three Years On and Still No Answers In remembrance of all the people who died that day and also for those who still feel that a full and open public inquiry is needed in order to fully explain what really happened, I am re-posting these two videos which ask the questions that many of us still need answered.

POPSBin Laden's Right-Hand Man Out On Bail He was also banned from associating with a long list of named people, including Osama bin Laden, his deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri and Rachid Ramda, who was convicted in France of masterminding a series of bombings in 1995. Abu Hamza, another firebrand preacher convicted of inciting hatred at a London mosque, was also named. Abu Qatada won a lengthy appeal against his extradition from Britain to Jordan in April and at the time, the Home Office Minister, Tony McNulty, pledged the ruling would be appealed and he would not be released. Described by SIAC as a "truly dangerous individual" who has played a central role in major terrorist activities associated with al-Qaeda, Abu Qatada has, in his absence, been convicted twice in Jordan for conspiracy to carry out bomb attacks on two hotels in Amman in 1998 and for providing finance and advice for bomb attacks in Jordan planned to coincide with the millennium.

POPSLudicrous Diversion: 7/7 London Bombing The government has finally, after a year, presented us with their official ‘narrative’ concerning the event. Within hours it was shown to contain numerous errors, a fact since admitted by the Home Secretary John Reid. They have continuously rejected calls for a full, independent public inquiry. Tony Blair himself described such an inquiry as a ‘ludicrous diversion’. What don’t they want us to find out?

POPS Pakistan And President Musharraf Mark Steyn
Everyone's an expert :General Musharraf should do this, he shouldn't have done that, the State Department should lean on him to do the other. Furthermore, confident believers in the usual dreary pendulum of Pakistani politics — corrupt democrats, followed by authoritarian generals, followed by corrupt democrats — overlook how profoundly the country's changed. Its political dynamic has a new player: Islamism. Miss Bhutto says, oh, don't worry about that, it's a lot of hooey got up by Musharraf to persuade Washington to prop him up for another half-decade. Pakistan is not Persia. For one thing, it's a country only 60 years old whose slapdash creation was one of the worst disasters of British imperial policy. Yet even those who thought so at the time would be astonished to find that, a mere couple of generations on, a regional afterthought is not only a nuclear power that has dispersed its technology around the planet but also a driving force of the world's first global insurgency.

POPSZeitgeist (movie): Religion or astrology, war or profit?
Documentary offers interesting perspectives on instruments of influence like faith (traces antecedents and commonalities of world religions to astrology), media (e.g. discrepancies in 9/11 reports & investigation, less-reported issues like the strange coincidences of 9/11 & London bombings occurring simultaneously with govt anti-terror drills on the same targets , etc), war (as a profit machine for banking heavies), economies as hostage to a select few (roots of central banking as crafted by the private corporation called the federal reserve bank, etc), amongst other things. Some angles seem quite stretched, but raise interesting points nonetheless. Movie officially premieres at "Artivists" international film festival in LA. Movie's a bit lengthy, but a rough viewing rundown: The religion/astrology discussion runs from around 9th to 30th minute, 9/11 issues from the 37th min, banking at the 1hr 12th min, war for profit at the 1hr24th min.

POPSSaudis' claim Brits/Yanks ignored warnings of terrorist attacks.
Humm...If you cut this statement down to the minimalist bone it says, as a bottom line, I believe: "We (the Saudis) knew about these upcoming terrorist attacks)" It also says the Brits were clearly warned and in some twisted words implies the USA, at the least, 'could have been,' warned. Further conclusions are hard to decipher, at this time apparently lost in twisted words with uncertain meanings, diplomatic hints rather than facts, opposing statements by British and USA spokespeople, the filtering of the media and maybe even language nuances. Having said all that, yea...this is the truth. The Arabs knew. Israel knew. The USA deliberately avoided knowing. This is the "real," conspiracy of 9/11 (and apparently the London train bombings) and all the other 'conspiracies,' are just fake distractions and deliberate exaggerations to avoid getting to this 'real,' conspiracy OF ALLOWING THE ATTACK TO HAPPEN. (Um...This was also true for Pearl Harbor; intel of attack ignored);

POPSTurkey threats lift rebel Kurds' profile The PKK started as a Marxist-Leninist group demanding an independent homeland, but shed socialist ideology with the end of the Cold War and says it seeks some degree of self rule, similar to that of Spain's semiautonomous Catalonia region. Arrested in 1999, PKK leader Abdullah Ocalan still enjoys a personality cult among sympathizers and is believed to send directives through lawyers from prison. But the tight control that characterized the PKK eroded. In 2004, it dropped a unilateral cease-fire. Last year, a splinter operation called the Kurdistan Freedom Falcons bombed Turkish tourist resorts. An Iranian Kurd group affiliated with the PKK is fighting Iran.

POPS'New Al Qaeda plot to blow up planes on Sept. 11' smashed Our fortune can not last. It's amazing the number of plots that have been thwarted. I don't think many would/could consider this 'fear-mongering' around here...but the hatred of Americans has become trendy. Whatever our and Europe's security personnel are doing...thank you very much.
